Pretty sure vibrations was pre 2015 as well MarloweDK has it as standard in its set up and I gots me an old shape one

Vibration or heat treatment to the bass. Pick ups - there is not Delano on them (unless it rubbed off and I can’t see) so they could be Sandberg own, or even Haüssel’s, is it the standard pre amp, or a different one A few things…..

Old shape stopped in 2015 so it will be before then. get the serial number, email Sandberg - then you will have full specs, then you can make a decision on worth

I think it’s anything your phone plays - like a speaker - you can also change settings on saved presets and change IR’s from the app wired headphones into the unit

Yep doesn’t work for some people, but…..my DP3X, PSA 2.0 and dUg Ultrabass 1000 amp covers a lot of ground and pleasing sounds

Great track

I’m relation you the cost comment - it’s not wrong, but with a decent shop around and some luck - you can do it very reasonably, even when I went higher end it was still less than a new mex fender - and at least as good if not better

if you think logically, pretty much all Fenders are bitsa’s! That was their MO how you could pull respective bits out a bucket, bolt them together and away you go! I would happily put my bitsa’s up against mostly any bass and it would not disappoint

Have you considered a bitsa? you have the pick ups already

A very good friend yes and not being present. Probably to a friend of a friend or a newbie if I was present at the time. Unknown person - depending how charitable I am feeling they may get my worst bass at best. take his passport as insurance!

do it!

Probably price not for me, charge what you want - I like but wont buy - I rarely touch a tone knob

I restored an old cracked battered body….. and made up this bad boy a mate of mine has it as his go to bass pretty much almost wish I didn’t let it go, but it’s in a good home

.

Nowt wrong with a bass with no tone control and a vol control - Schecter dUg Pinnick Barron bass is just that and it’s a corker

Any combination or FEA OptiFET, CaliCB, DP3X, PSA2.0, GZR Wah, dUg amp

decent set up that. i see you have at least one octave, synth, 2 drives (VTDi and B7K on the zoom) and the envelope filter all on. What kind of sound does that give? Is the drive on your amp also on? All of that combined could give a very rich harmonic sound.

Enjoyed that thanks

Wow - that is very cool

Opti FET is stunning - i use that and the CaliCB

You are correct - it’s a great piece of kit. Silent home practice is easier and a dream to listen to and having an ampless rig to your taste. I am neither fan boy or detractor of DG - but this is genius

Welcome to compression/compressors. Taken the time to properly understand and tweak they and especially this one is phenomenal and improving the balance of your sound to a level where no one knows something is working, but everything is working because of how it makes it sit. You are correct as well, it’s not that daunting and very intuitive
